I Love What I Do!

Joan volunteers on Tuesdays at the Irondequoit Campus and has been doing so for over 30 years. She visits with residents whom may not have family living nearby and helps them with various needs such as addressing cards, taking them to the cafe and Mass. Occasionally, she also helps with resident outings at Cherry Ridge as well. Residents enjoy Joan's friendship and look forward to seeing her every week.

Nora has been volunteering Cherry Ridge for 7 years. She visits with residents, helps with crafts, assists with various luncheons, and even sets up and hosts High Tea! She loves a party and helps with most special events such as concerts and birthday parties. Everyone enjoys Nora’s company.

Teen volunteer siblings, Alyx and Jayson, volunteer summers at the Irondequoit and Webster Campus helping with picnics and summer strolls. All residents enjoy visiting with this young "dynamic duo".
